Why was she looking at him that way? There's no way he'd insulted her that much! This couldn't by some sort of accident. That was deliberate hate Peter was facing now. What exactly had he done again? Peter still didn't know. Though, he was getting pretty darn grateful for the mask. His face was turning red from all the excitement.

"No. No, it's not." Came his quiet reply. Peter paused then to better soak up the sudden embarrassment and he tried to gather his thoughts together for a better retort. Jesus. Just hold on a second. He didn't put this costume on to be bullied by another Flash Thompson. Where did this girl get off anyway? As the seconds rolled by his posture became more rigid and he felt very annoyed at her attack. He wanted to be rude back, but it was very hard to be mean to a girl in his face like that. "I have a secret identity to protect. Thought that might be obvious at an Avenger get together?" There. That wasn't too bad, was it? He felt a little better.
